The illiterate of the future will not be the person who cannot read. It will be the person who does not know how to learn.
More Quotes from Alvin Toffler:
In describing today's accelerating changes, the media fire blips of unrelated information at us. Experts bury us under mountains of narrowly specialized monographs.

As a result, change itself comes to be seen as anarchic, even lunatic.Alvin Toffler
